She Writes She writes words which dance in delight Across the pages I read at night And I sink into those dreams of chance Waltz and whirl in my mind's romance I look into the scene which she sets down Seeing wonders and joy wearing hope's gown She writes words that free my soul From the pains of life endless roll Then I fly in hope through her open door Swooping then sinking into beauties allure Touch the glittering stars and almost weep With wonder that this is in my keep She writes words that loosed my chain Setting me free to roam again So I leap from my prison of daily grind Seeking the joys that I know I'll find Within the words that she conjures for me I see the world in its true beauty She writes and I read; an empathic pair Separate but indivisible, one soul we share Marsha © Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds but I can face the future with courage brave and bold Footprints In My Heart Kethry |

"So I leap from my prison of daily grind Seeking the joys that I know I'll find Within the words that she conjures for me I see the world in its true beauty" This piece perfectly captures the "beauty" of the pleasure of the senses. Enjoyed Janette always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same |

Within the words that she conjures for me I see the world in its true beauty With the kindness and compassion of your sweet soul, you'd find beauty no matter what the words. *S* What incredible encouragement you are to all of us... you give us belief our words matter. *S* Thank you, gentle friend... thank you! *S* Beautiful work! |

My sweet loving friends thank you for the kindness you show me. I simply do not get the time these days to come and visit for very long. Apart from the time I spend at University, I’m no longer able to type for very long at all. Such is life; we all have things we have to deal with. I did not want you to imagine I forget you, any of you. My bones might be weak but my memory is as clear as ever, I do not forget any of you, or what you have been for me. I do visit quietly now and then, sometimes I steal time from dictating an essay to place a reply. Too often I simply run out of even stolen time, and can’t do much more than sip the dew of your golden words and bath my soul in wonder. Take care my friends, you are special to me. And Suthern beloved one YOU know how very special you are, don’t you? I hope so darling heart, for from your soul I hear music that makes angels weep with wonder. As always Mushy x x x x x x x Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |

Marsha, How delightful. Not only do I like the concept I love the presentation. Nicely done. I'm saddened that your bones grow weak but take consolation in the strength of your mind. Miss ya'. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

Her bones may be weak But her heart is strong Her lips give not moans But uplifting song To know her friendship Is to be richly blessed She overlooks flaws And brings out our best A sweeter soul You never will find She's gentle and smart And goodness defined She's smart and her talent Is second to none (and I didn't forget *G*) She's the pretty one!! LOL... Sorry, my dear... I couldn't resist! *G* |

She does indeed....and even when she writes of grief, her words dance. Like yours, they never fail to move me. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

This is the reason people write..for others to enjoy and delight in the masterpieces they create. It's a wonderful bond made between people through thoughts flowing to paper. I love this gorgeous poem. |
